Blue Tudor Snowflake Sub 9411/0 Introduction
Hello TRF...After several months of searching and waiting, today this Blue Tudor Snowflake Sub arrived!
This is what I know, a few months ago the watch was purchased from its original owner by a vintage watch dealer. The dealer sold it to another TRF member who had it for a short time before selling to me. The watch is all original, serial # 845xxx, and as you can see has a nice steel blue color to the bezel. It didn't come with a bracelet, but this cool Speed Bird Nato. It is great to be a part of the Snowflake Sub Family! |

BEEEEEUUUTIFUL!
Do think it would look better on a rustic brown leather than that nato.

Nowzen, I am not really sure. I have been staring at it all evening and had not yet thought about that. Show me a link or pic of what you are suggesting.

Great looking watch. I am desperately seeking a blue Snowflake, hopefully a 94010 but I may have to settle for a date model.
That one deserves a bracelet. Rolex will sell you a modern one. Tudor bracelets are almost identical to the Rolex bracelet and are considerably cheaper. I bought one a couple of years ago from RSC Dallas for a bit over $400.

Well done man! Very hard to find a decent snowflake, not to mention one that is original and from your birth year! You did well my friend!
